Despicable Me 2 Trailer

Following the evil schemes of Gru in 'Despicable Me' involving the hijacking of the moon with his little yellow minions and wicked cohort Dr. Nefario, 'Despicable Me 2' sees their anticipated return in the summer of 2013. Having competed against his rival Vector by going one up from his Egyptian Pyramid theft and successfully stealing the moon, the first film saw Gru adopting three young girls and giving up the stolen rock to rescue them from the ruthless super-villain. Does his success make Gru learn his lesson and become a decent man after his newfound fatherly affection for his girls, or will he and his minions return with an even more abominable plot to become the most notorious super-villain in the world?

Directed by Pierre Coffin and Chris Renaud and produced by Christopher Meledandri ('Ice Age', 'Robots') and Janet Healy ('Shark Tale'), details of this family friendly comedy animation have not yet been released; the first teaser trailer reveals Gru's minions singing a parody of The Beach Boys' 'Barbara Ann' which, although entertaining, certainly succeeds in keeping the plotline under wraps. Rest assured though, our favourite evil army will return! The movie will reach UK cinemas by June 28th 2013.
